I’d be happy to help. I operate a resale Lego shop franchise that may or may not allow consignment and I may or may not be selling my franchise to another person in a few months. Hard to say. I have a bunch of stickers I can put on your sets so I remember they’re yours.
I think the extent to which people can open up more easily to an AI than to a human says something about culture and vulnerability, and how shitty it can be on creating an environment that feels safe to be vulnerable in, or even using language that is exploratory rather than judgmental.
100%. Really cooking with this take.
It’s finally summer break! I have a lot to say about this year but need time to write it all out. I’m very excited to spend time at home with the little fish for two months.
Congrats! You’re gonna do great! Your Sorosbucks are in the mail!
Burning down data centers just got a lot funnier.
Oh look, something even more American than the UFC arena in front of the white house.
These multi-trillion dollar companies aren’t too smart. Don’t they know the vacuum of space would be terrible for cooling the computers? Therefore, we should send all humans to space.
Much like the actual artwork, this meme is pretty much the plot of Hyperion.
Finally someone who’s willing to stand up for what they believe.
Also soup is goated. Here, try this one. It’s soup flavored.
It’s always good when your heart rate is two numbers.
That sounds kinda fun (and injurious to my body, but I’m okay with that), how do I sign up?
Traitors. Which one? All of them. As the adderall and caffeine fizzle out of our bloodstreams, Traitors is about all we can handle. Traitors US is by far the sloppiest, which makes it my favorite. I’m legitimately jealous of Alan Cummings’ increasingly flamboyant outfits.
The only thing he’s guilty of is bada bing
Inb4 this. Just this. TL;DR I was today years old when I thank you for the gold kind stranger. Whomst.
Thank you!
I tell my students all the time to embrace the flaws in their pieces. You learn a lot from mistakes. And mistakes are neither good nor bad.
I’m excited for you! You’ll have a blast.
“Imagine a less expensive burger”
I don’t blame you. I think the goal of moving to a country as far outside the US’s sphere of imperialism is the best decision you can make. I have two very lib friends who are moving to Denmark next year from the US “for a while” and are convinced they’ll be escaping “Trumpism”. They espouse other such fantasies often.
For me, I’m stuck here in the US. Well, stuck is probably the wrong word. Too harsh, too much negative connotation. We are tied to this place. My family could move elsewhere. It would not be easy, economically or otherwise. The total cost of moving would be too great. My partner and I would be spiritually less. Our children will have lost home. We love this place, the natural beauty of the Midwest, hills and creeks and flowers that are familiar and precious. From the tempestuous weather to the smallest flickering lightning bug. Not to mention the deep bonds we have with friends and loved ones. How could I bear to not be here witnessing this part of the world with my family? This may all seem idealistic and privileged. It is. I am fortunate and naive enough to be hopeful for the future. However, I work everyday to cultivate resilience for my family and community to prepare for when the worst comes.
